"An hypocrite with mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered."
In context
7When a wicked man dieth, expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust perisheth.
8The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
9An hypocrite with mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
